“The U.S. FDA has approved Freenome’s blood-based colorectal cancer screening test for older adults, paving the way for partner Abbott to launch it in the U.S. this fall, the companies said on Monday.
Shares of Freenome were up about 4% in morning trading. … The test, SimpleScreen CRC, detects signals linked to colorectal cancer from DNA fragments circulating in the blood. Abbott is likely to market SimpleScreen to people who do not complete or decline stool-based screening tests, Brennan said.” (07/27/26) - France: Crowd subdues man who attacked three women with knives

“A man attacked three women with knives in Paris before bystanders pinned him to the ground and an off-duty police officer detained him, the French interior minister, Laurent Nuñez, has said. The man attacked the three women, aged 19, 24 and 36, with two kitchen knives, severely wounding two of them, near Porte de Clichy on Monday, Nuñez said. A video shared on Snapchat and verified by Reuters showed a man with long black hair and wearing a cream tracksuit wielding one big knife in each hand and attempting to attack and stab a young woman. It was unclear if the woman was injured. … Another part of the video shows the same man in a tracksuit lying on the ground immobilised by bystanders, while the two knives are seen lying nearby on a pedestrian crossing. ‘It is Allah who commanded me,’ the man lying on the floor says in the video.” (07/27/26)

“Shares in China’s biggest memory chip maker have soared by nearly 470% as they made their debut on the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s tech-heavy Star Market.

by Abigail R Hall“A whistleblower is an employee or a former employee who reveals information about wrongdoing inside an organization. As my coauthors and I have written, whistleblowers have played a critical role in exposing government abuses in democratic societies. Ideally, government officials act only to benefit the public. Should they act opportunistically or against the public interest, they would be punished through mechanisms like the voting booth, prosecution, or impeachment. Literature on the economics of politics, or ‘public choice,’ however, illustrates that real democratic institutions deviate from this ideal as a result of information asymmetries, in which some actors have more or better information than others, voter ignorance, and the organizational structures of politics. These imperfections are amplified in the national security state.” (07/27/26)

That point of view seems to support the approach to politics that sees it mainly as a question of who gets to benefit at the expense of whom, of which side who is on. Like many things that seem obvious, this one is false. It is true that my status is relative to yours.

As of March 2026, the median sale price of a California home reached a staggering $854,000, roughly double the national average. This has forced many Californians to pack their bags and search for a better—or, at least, more affordable—life elsewhere. The California exodus is a harsh reminder that there are two ways to solve the housing crisis: the state can either facilitate housing construction, or it can say goodbye to its residents. If California cannot bring prices down by adding to the supply, population flight will eventually lower prices on the demand side.” (07/27/26)
